The History of RiaJose.com

Before RiaJose.com, there was Ria Interactive... It used to be http://riajose.cjb.net... I don't know what happened. I made this site under the mentorship of the great Kuya Andrew who taught me how to manipulate images using Adobe Photoshop and make websites using tadaaa... Macromedia Dreamweaver. LOL! I was in first year college then and very much bored with my life. It started as a website for me and my high school batchmates and evolved into a site about everything that caught my fancy. Notice the sections for entertainment, news, opinion, and advice which have now evolved into niche blogs. The website was last updated in May 2000. Then, while on leave of absence sometime very late 2002, I created RIA{lity} Bites... I made this using Microsoft Frontpage (I know... EW!) and Adobe Photoshop. LOL! It was last updated in November 2003. This then evolved into my very personal blog in LiveJournal. Kuya Andrew read it and made me my first niche blog. Shortly, after... I started more niche blogs and I now have 11 blogs.
